Books I’ve read over the years

As much as I like reading articles, I find that they serve a purpose different from books.

Articles keep me updated on design, leadership, and business trends, and to keep a pulse on the industry.

Books tend to contain wisdom and knowledge that stand the test of time, delve deeper on its subject matter, and are self contained.

Below are some of the books that I’ve read since 2003 and have influenced my values and thinking over the years.
